Cardiff Half Marathon Race Brochure 2017 | Page 7

This year’s race takes in some of Cardiff’s most iconic landmarks, from Cardiff Castle, the Cardiff Barrage to the Wales Millennium Centre. After the race why not explore and discover Cardiff’s progress from a small settlement, to the world’s busiest port, to the modern capital city it is today. Shopping Cardiff is ranked as one of the UK’s top six shopping cities, with its combination of designer brands, high street names and independent shops. Whilst the St. David’s Centre and John Lewis give scale to the city, the delightful Victorian and Edwardian arcades add a distinctly Welsh flavour to a day out shopping. Thank you to everyone running the Cardiff Half Marathon on behalf of Age Cymru! Dining Cardiff knows how to offer good food in tasteful surroundings, with hundreds of places to eat and drink. From the al-fresco dining options along Mill Lane to the cosmopolitan Brewery Quarter to Mermaid Quay’s wealth of eateries overlooking the waterfront, there are dining options to suit all tastes and budgets in Cardiff. www.visitcardiff.com ROUTE MAP no |4 Heritage EVENT EXPERIENCE ne |3 Cardiff is a city of unique attractions, world-class sport stadiums, lively entertainment and a vast range of accommodation all within easy walking distance.
